Not Drawing Hts Salary.
WASHINGTON, April IA Suns
Washington special says the only
member of the Fiftieth Congress who
is not drawing his salary is Woodburn,
Republican member from Nevada.
WOODBURY. some time ago left for Eu-
rope, and made arrangements with the
Sergeant-at-Arms' Office to have his
draft honored, but up to date his GER
~tificate of election has not been re-
ceived at the Clerks Office. This of
course prevents him from drawing his
salary. Woodburn is now travelling
on the Continent in ignorance of the
dishonor of his draft. The certificate
of election was left at Woodburn's
home in Nevada.
There is some mistake in regard to
the above. Mr.. WOODBURY. did not go
to Europe, but returned home after
the adjournment of Congress.-ED.
